The Nigeria goalkeeper has been recompensed for his outstanding performance at Lille since his promotion to first choice keeper

Lille goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama
has won the French Ligue 1 player of the month award for October,
besting Paris Saint Germain stars Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Edinson Cavani
to clinch the periodic accolade for outstanding performance in the
premier division.
The 31-year-old, who joined the French outfit from Israel’s Hapoel
Tel Aviv in 2011, was promoted to first choice goalkeeper this season
and has been fantastic in goal since the beginning of the campaign,
keeping a clean sheet across 675 minutes already.
Enyeama raked 71% of the votes far ahead of Ibrahimovic, who scored
19% and Cavani, 10%. He will receive his trophy on Sunday before his
side’s clash with Toulouse in match day 14.
The former Enyimba guardian also figures on the Confederation of
African Football's (Caf’s) list of nominees for the 2013 African
Footballer of the Year award. ------------------ goal.com
